Re: [Evolution] Lost contact wih my Contacts in Evolution 2.0.4 ;-)

[Sushma Rai <rsushma novell com>]

.evolution/addressbook directory contains db files for contacts.
.evolution/addressbook/local/ folder will contain directories
corresponding to local contacts folders.
.evolution/addressbook/local/system folder contains db file for
your local Personal folder.
.evolution/cache/addressbook directory will contain offline cache files.
(Evo 2.2 +)

To analyze your problem, can you start evolution-data-server and
evolution in different consoles and see if there are any warning/error
log messages are printed on the console?
